"With high levels of [West Nile Virus] in mosquitoes and the recent rains leading to even more mosquitoes, it's important for residents of Fairfax County to take precautions to protect themselves and their families", the Fairfax County Health Department said in a news release.

There are no confirmed human cases of the virus in the region so far this year.

Gov. Dannel Malloy said there's been a rapid build-up of the virus following recent tests, which showed infected mosquitoes rose to levels that were higher than this time previous year. Our goal is for that to be the only one. The virus was found in mosquitoes in in 51 of 67 Pennsylvania counties. Always read the repellent label and consult with a health care provider if you have questions when using these types of products for children.

Kozhikode: One case of West Nile fever has been confirmed in Kozhikode. These bodies of standing water are where mosquitoes lay their eggs. The pool of water that collects in a single upturned bottle cap can incubate hundreds of eggs.

Helwig and Carroll said the wet, hot weather is driving the increase in West Nile.

The symptoms of more severe cases include disorientation, coma, tremors, vision loss and numbness. Dr. Garvey says that, until the state's first hard frost, whether it's for work or play, being outside means there's a risk for West Nile virus.
